Hi Dimitris,

This page can be useful for you:
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject/Translation But, as you have
already pointed it, even though I have received help from mether, nman64
and other people I have not mentioned here, I still do not exectly know
how the relnotes should be translated :D That is inter alia why I have
to edit, as I think few thousands lines to prepare FC5 relnotes for
publishing, although it is already 3 months after release. Heh, I abash
that it takes a long time like that. Now I am waiting until I will
install my system from the beginning, cos I have a big mess here :>

Regards,
Pawel
